FORMULA 1 STC SAUDI ARABIAN GRAND PRIX 2024
I HATE that they are always shilling for these events.
"It really was a great show here in Saudi Arabia"
You never hear that during the more traditional races. Fuck sports washing.
Not entirely true as the Zandvoort race also got many praises for โsetting the barโ for the whole race weekend as a spectacle which is a pretty old track.
But Iโd rather see a good race in Spa/Suzuka without a show than a โgreat showโ with a boring race but sadly it seems to go in the more show-direction. However in my opinion this Saudi Arabian track is pretty cool. And when you are at the track itself it is pretty neat to have great things to do or see before or after the race.
I feel like I hear that line on every race, not sure what you mean.
Kmag with the huge teamwork to get Hulk points
Pretty good racing, nice to see Beaman do so well on his first outing.
That cat and mouse chase between Lewis and Piastri was so stressful
I can only imagine how frustrated Piastri was the whole time only to move ahead of him because Lewis pitted lol
What happened to that Norris jumpstart? Did the stewards forget
I believe sky mentioned that the jump-start sensors didn't trip, indicating that he didn't cross (or touch?) the line.
Basically he stopped far enough back that his movement did not leave his designated area.
This is the rules reason he didn't get a penalty.
From a fairness standpoint, correcting from his early start threw him off and he lost a couple of places because he was slow on the real start.
They were too busy giving 10 sec penalties to Magnussen for actual racing. Ok maybe the Albon pinch was penalty worthy but 10 seconds?
I thought so too but it sounded like that was the new rule this year that they had to give a 10 second penalty.
Ahh didn't know about that thanks for the precision. Still feels a bit harsh to me, especially the second one where he went wide.
No further investigation.
As a Piastri fan I was happy with his pace, but especially his tyre management. That long of a stint on one tyre would have caught him out last year.
Other than p1, what a great race! Strategy mix ups and tyre choices, safety cars and gearbox issues. Battles up and down the field, max reigned in slightly, what's not to love?
As interesting as it was to see KMag hold up the pack to give space for Hulk, I do wish drivers had to serve their penalties in the race, in a timely manner. With 20 seconds of penalties, his race was basically run. I get that it's teamwork and why he did it etc., but it just feels very very cynical
